I'm slaying demons in the anime

"If I don't have this beauty that God has given me, then what will I have left in the end?"

"Wealth and glory will eventually leave me."

"All that's left is this old, decayed body of mine."

At this moment, she remembered the legend about mermaids that has been circulating in Wakasa Province:

Legend has it that a long time ago, a man named Takahashi who looked like a fisherman moved to a village called Obama in the Wakasa region.

One day, the man invited villagers to his home for dinner. Someone discovered that his kitchen was cooking a fish with a human-like head. Frightened, they quickly told everyone else. When the cooked fish was served to everyone, everyone knew what was in it and pretended to enjoy it, but in fact no one dared to eat it.

One of them secretly hid the fish in his sleeve and took it back for his wife to eat. It is said that the wife who ate the mermaid lived to the age of her seventh generation grandson, and her face still maintained a youthful and beautiful look.

This long-lived woman was called Eight Hundred Bhikkhuni.

The woman was ecstatic when she received the news.

Then he ordered people to find the mermaid's flesh and make sure it was presented to him.

After spending a lot of manpower and material resources, the woman finally found a piece of mermaid's flesh and blood.

However, just when she was about to swallow this piece of flesh and blood and gain eternal beauty.

Because of her evil deeds, some people finally couldn't bear it anymore and started a rebellion.

When a warrior armed with a sharp blade rushed into her room and stabbed her body with the blade.

She felt tremendous remorse.

"I just want to live freely."

"I just want to achieve permanent beauty."

"Why did you come to stop me!"

At the last moment of her life, the woman swallowed the mermaid's flesh with resentment.

But something unexpected happened.

The mermaid's flesh and blood merged with the woman's unwillingness, producing a terrible reaction.

Then, a brand new being was born from the woman's flesh and blood.

She has the memory of a woman and the appearance of a woman, but she is not a woman.

From that day on, this existence has been circulating throughout Japan.

The only thing we know is the woman's former name - Kawakami Tomie. 】

When Beichen Xiao finished reading this notebook, he found the word "Beichen" at the end of the book.

No wonder he was so familiar with this note.

It turns out that this was something that spread from the Beichen Shrine.

And this is actually the secret of Tomie's birth.

"I already know about Tomie's situation."

"So what about you, Sato?"

"What kind of existence are you?"

"Or, are you really Sato?"

Sato was speechless for a long time after hearing Beichen Xiao's words.

The expression on his face was constantly changing.

From youth to old age.

From men to women.

"I'm definitely not Sato."

"To be exact, no one."

"I am nothing more than the remaining traces and bubbles of the phantom that should have dissipated long ago."

[The host encounters a new weirdness - the phantom of the past]

[An existence formed by the traces left by the souls that have dissipated. It is no one, but it can be anyone. Only the strongest obsession can gather and form such an existence after death. Even if he has forgotten everything, when he returns from his mission, he will eventually recall everything from the past. 】

After Sato finished talking about himself, a new introduction appeared on the system panel.

The being before him was not a soul, but a patchwork of people who had died here.

"It's funny how crazy we were when we were alive."

“It was only after death that I finally saw everything clearly.”

[The seeds of desire are buried in the mud of sin]

[A tree like a bone grew, and a flower called sin grew]

[And the Fruit of Death]

"The woman's boundless desire eventually gave birth to a monster named Tomie."

"Our desires ultimately led to this final tragedy."

"We have been here for decades in a daze. Only now have we finally found ourselves again."

"And this is all thanks to you."

Sato looked at Beichen Xiao with a look of melancholy, relief, and gratitude.

"So, is everything over?"

Beichen Xiao asked back.

"The end? For us, perhaps this is the end."

"Our stagnant lives have finally found a way to move forward."

"But, for you, I'm afraid it's far from enough."

"We divided the original Tomie into ten parts, and ten Tomies were born from these ten parts."

"In the final cleanup, most of the Tomie were wiped out."

"But the most cunning one among the ten Tomies escaped."

Sato glanced at Beichen Xiao, then looked at the abandoned hospital in front of him with a complicated expression.

Under Beichen Xiao's gaze, black flames began to burn on Sato's body.

Finally it turned into a dark flower made of flames.

Beichen Xiao held the flower in his hand and could faintly hear Sato's voice echoing in his ears.

"Let our sinful souls put an end to all the evil here."

Beichen Xiao stared at the black fire lotus, and its name soon appeared in the system.

[Item: Lotus of Karma Fire]

【Using sin as fuel, it burns all the sins in this world. Only the purest souls can be preserved from the burning of the fire of karma.】

"What's the point of this?"

Beichen Xiao said in a complicated tone.

Then he threw the fire lotus towards the hospital.

After the small fire lotus touched Tomie's flesh and blood, it instantly turned into a raging fire.

Faintly, you could still hear Tomie's screams.

[Host completes the mission: All the evil pasts in the hospital have been uncovered]

[Reward: Random Magic Bullet Key x2 has been issued]

[Get additional gift: characteristic - Hellfire]

Beichen Xiao looked at the rewards on the panel and his eyes widened slightly.

In the fire burning behind him, he seemed to faintly see a white figure waving at him.

Beichen's mouth curled up slightly, then he turned around and left gracefully.

This crime that had been hidden in the mountains for decades finally came to an end.

PS: This chapter was originally planned to be updated tomorrow.

But seeing that everyone is so enthusiastic, let’s collect a daily amount of 10,000 today.

Okay, let’s continue typing.

Looks like I have to owe quite a few chapters (crying)

Volume 1: Chapter 67: Give Tokyo Police a Little Beichen Shock

In less than an hour, the foot of the hill where the abandoned hospital was located was filled with police cars.

A group of policemen with dark circles under their eyes came straight here.

Because of a small report of a crime, most of the police forces in Tokyo came to this small hill.

A group of policemen, braving the cold night wind and dark circles under their eyes, began searching for the criminals on the mountain.

The instigator of all this, Beichen Xiao, was now sitting next to Shizuka with an "innocent look on his face", drinking steaming hot coffee, as if none of this had anything to do with him.

This scene almost made Natsumi Tsujimoto, who already had dark circles under his eyes, almost faint.

Why did I work so hard for such a long time because of this person's matter, and I even have dark circles under my eyes, but why can Beichen Xiao still be there leisurely drinking coffee!

Thinking of this, Xia Shi felt like vomiting blood.

I had clearly already gotten off work last week.

As a result, the leader suddenly called and asked me to take a statement.

It is said that a certain high school student has single-handedly defeated all the bad guys in the high school.

At first she thought her boss was joking.

As a result, I posted a video not long after.

It shows the scene of Beichen Xiao defeating a hundred people alone.

Although Xia Shi was a little happy at first that his little brother had become so capable.

But then I thought--

I still have to take statements from a hundred people!

Thinking of this, Xia Shi was a little overwhelmed.

Three days of overtime work.

Finally, I am almost done taking notes.

Xia Shi was just about to call Beichen Xiao for questioning, but he received this kind of call today.

Kidnappings, murders, and secret experiments hidden by former top leaders.

These things are no longer something the Tokyo police can handle.

She, Natsumi Tsujimoto, has never seen a high school student who is so capable of causing trouble!

We have to give them a shock no matter what, right?

"Beichen! Can't you just take a break for a while?"

"Give us something to do all day long, it's fun, right?"

Xia Shi came to Beichen Xiao angrily, but Beichen Xiao remained calm.

"Sister Xia Shi, I don't understand what you are saying."

"What do you mean I'm causing trouble?"
